the title is spot on - the devil (along with the magic, the saving graces, the silver linings, the whole point of all of this) is in the details. at its heart, this book is composed of the details of the four people the author has encountered throughout her life. though it is so intimately personal to the author, her connections also feel so achingly familiar. this book captures the beautiful irony of autobiographies: through the intricacies, fine print, and details of one person's life, we see that we are more similar than different.
